I need a non-multimedia laptop in good operation. Base: ----- CPU: Either a high-end 486 laptop or a low-end Pentium (120Mhz or less). RAM: 16MB is nice, 32MB would be great!! HD: > 850MB. Prefer 1GB. Screen: Dual Scan, etc is fine. Need 256 colors in 800x600 res. I'm not using this for Multimedia. So Active Matrix is NOT required. PCMCIA: 2 Type-II PCMCIA slots. I need to use a ethernet and modem simultaneously. Pointng: Glide. Will consider trackball or the track-point if price is right. Misc: Battery (long life is not a concern), case (if you already have one. I don't need SW. My company has adequate license for ALL the SW I need. So don't try to sell me SW. Options: ------- Modem: PCMCIA 33.6 data/fax. I can buy this NEW for $110 Ethernet:PCMCIA Ethernet 10bt card. I can get this new for $65. I don't want a CD-ROM or Sound card. I can use the network to install new SW off my workstation's CD-ROM. Basically, I'm looking for a NON-multimedia laptop w/ communication ability. If you don't have the modem or ethernet card, that's fine. But the base system is required. I plan to install either Win95 or Linux and use the machine for Remote Access only. Hence, I'm not looking for brute horsepower, just fast communication and enough HD to install my apps. If you can help me out, know someone who is selling something similar, know somewhere else I can get this, I would appreciate if you could contact/forward the info. I can be contacted at rguha@nortel.ca (919) 544-5001 ~Home (919) 991-2037 ~Work I'm located in RTP, NC. I will have to test the system out first before buying it. For CA reader, I have someone in the Silicon Valley area that can check and buy the system for me. cheers. -- Rathindra Guha (rguha@nortel.ca) Nortel, Research Triangle Park, NC 27713.
